I want to be correct and I want to be the best
Cause I'm in love with you
I don't want to talk about it

Send my burning on the breeze
Send me down onto my knees
Cause I'm in love with you
I know the caves are deep

So deep, So deep

When I fell asleep the tide was high
It touched the rooftop of your smile
It's hard to be direct when I talk about you

I want to be correct and I want to feel the best
Cause I'm in love with you
I don't want to talk about it

Track Name: Brown and Blue

He's an ember but he never burns like he should
He's my lover but he never does me any good!

I wanted to run away
Put my hands in the sand let it bury me
When he knelt and wept "Would you marry me?"
I couldn't even tell him why not!

He doesn't see that I can't let him off the hook
When he's sleeping let the devil read him like a book

I want the silent nights now
Nothing deep inside to make us both surprised
and the evil that we never saw here
Might make it's last fall here

Track Name: Privacy

In the letter that I wrote you I gave you privacy
Took my arching ecstacy and nailed it
To a tree on the west side of town
I didn't know what grew there
I can see you standing around on those lacy bridges

And was it you that held me?
I want to remember as if it was
And if shadow covers my path
Will you be my memory?

People come and people know their bodies in the light
So I let you go honestly, quietly through the day
As the sun gives to night
I didn't know what was true -
Are those wolf teeth in your smile,
Or will I be holding you? Or -

Was it you that held me?
I want to remember as if it was
And if a shadow covers my path
Will you be a memory?

Track Name: Those Woods

Tried filling a 12 year rift that laughed -
Against the consequence
When I met the poison I couldn't wait -
To make the difference

Didn't know I'd fell so fast
I thought that I could, but if I should
Might I fail my father
Lyin upon those woods?

I feel so uneasy, late on a lie that pushed me
By surprise
Praying for us to thrive though we're misaligned
And we wouldn't act right

To outgrow a lonely past
That left a pile of how-to books
The mess was meant to die
Upon those words

Left my body in the cemetary
Cause I waited too long
And couldn't decide upon a firing gun
What I really did want
